Frustrated about my wasted time trying out AI tools, I automatically labeled many other AI tools as “early stage” and “unuseful.” And to be honest, many of them still are. They are fun to play around with, sure. But which are good “today”? Beyond well-prompted ChatGPT prompts?

A few short weeks ago, I had a massive grin on my face during a meeting. I was smiling because I discovered that hundreds of users are now using my first lead project from 2015, the selection and implementation of a project management tool called Asana. It has even generated case studies that Asana presents as "successful examples". This made me ponder: how quickly does the "new" become the "old"?

To maintain an edge in the ever-evolving AI landscape, it's crucial to strategically embrace AI adoption. My latest blog delves into where this might first be seen. Read on to explore.

We already discussed in a different article that you need to trial and error your options. This can mean encouraging you or your staff to use the new tools (though warn them about its ethics and security implications).

Exploring can also help you lose your fear of something. Psychologists refer to a method specifically designed to help people confront their fear as “Exposure Therapy”. The gist? Once you confront your “fear”, you lose it.

The rise of AI writing tools and plugins such as Flowrite or Quickmail makes it easier to cut down on the flood of ever-increasing emails finding their way into our inboxes. Finally, we can spend less time on emails and more on the things we love.

But should we?

Not only did I eat twice at McDonald’s today, I even ordered yet another menu item for dinner at Hungry Jacks (the Australian version of Burger King) for dinner. And no, I am not feeling well at the moment (aside from a slight feeling of shame).

But it got me thinking: Why did I end up eating all my three daily meal times at these sub-healthy establishments today? How the heck did I end up here? How did the businesses make me buy from them three times?

Will managers be replaced by AI?

The short answer? No. But the management role itself will dramatically change.

ChatGPT continues to awestruck the masses. Read on to discover three examples of how you can use the tool, particularly as a mid-size company right now, right here.

Is ChatGPT “all hat, no cattle” (as the Texans would say) or actually a new frontier of AI today? Either way, here are three reasons why the hyped language-based tool is limited (despite its remarkable abilities).

Nothing is new about humans resisting change. Literally. Doing change successfully anywhere requires hard work and the actual management of change (everyone heard about change management) at hand. It is a lot of work. Read on to discover three hilarious examples of early innovation resistance.

We are moving away from numbers and statistics that require the need for human involvement. And are going into the inevitable direction of lower overall systems costs, with better data and ultimately, decision and system help that is somewhat allowing to process and aggregate the insane amounts of data that a human brain never could.

Previously, Nicholas was the Product Manager for Cargo Dragon and subsequently Director of Spacecraft Production at SpaceX, and has served 12 years in the U.S. Navy in various aviation and aerospace engineering roles.

I could see many people roll their eyes just after the presenter put up a big, white slide with the only word "Innovation" being on it. Somewhat, I think that I was able to feel that I hear their monologues in their heads unafraidly shouting out "BOORING" or "You don't say?" or even "Seriously man you are wasting my time I know all this".

"Innovation is more important than ever." That was what the speaker was saying at a Brisbane-located event I attended a few days ago. But because he did not explain what was so new about this he sealed his fate with the audience and lost all remaining attention.

You have had several meetings with your team and communicated the need for innovation. You researched what teams need to come up with innovative ideas or solutions to an existing problem. You removed all the barriers you can think of. And yet, Jimmy's team from the other department spits out innovation like a flame thrower gasoline while you are sitting here in this dark meeting room for an hour already deciding if pushing this innovation is worth all that hassle.

When discussing trends, products on their own are not always a trend. A trend is anything with a widespread tendency. Trends can be anything - from a consumer service offering such as changing tires on your old rusty car to a slow change in behavior on the side of your suppliers that you develop because the market has shifted towards a sellers-market.

Taking a video call inside a store? Why would you do that? Doesn't everyone have a P.C. at home these days? Or at least a smartphone? And wasn't there a Starbucks here before (I favor it each time I am in the U.S.)? Continue to read to see why BoA wants you to walk into their store in 2022 - for a video call.

Fixing complex problems is hard. One way to tackle solving complex issues is to find the root problems. This fish model simplifies what and how to think of your situation - to solve it easily.

Of course, sometimes “improvements” are either not that great, too costly, too time-consuming, too impractical… or simply not an objective improvement. But sometimes, even if it objectively benefits an organization, a great idea can still get refused. This is where research points to the so-called NIH syndrome.

Strategy is important. But what about Innovation Strategy? Isn’t that already included in the “regular” strategy? Read up on this post to find out three important reasons why you need an Innovation Strategy.
